Osho discusses modern scientific research on four states of consciousness as reflected in brain wave activity (alpha, beta, theta and delta) and continues to expand on the significance of the "eight steps" of Yoga. "Patanjali's whole art is of how to attain to the state where you can die willingly, with no resistance," he says. And these precious sutras are a preparation - a preparation to die and a preparation to a greater life, and you can use this book and Patanjali's methodology to touch these very depths.
